A. Mission Description and Budget Item Justification
The Army has a requirement to provide Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR) platforms capable of operating in and near unfriendly territories/areas of
conflict. The system shall be a rotary wing unmanned vertical takeoff and landing(VTOL) aircraft system not conducive to standard airfields but forward deployable to
support extended operations in austere environment. The aircraft system will be made up of multiple aircraft (minimum of 4) that incorporates high value technologies
in the airframe, propulsion, datalink systems, communications systems, and avionics systems. The system will be common with the Army selection of the Line of Sight
and Beyond Line of Sight Tactical Common Data Link and the Universal Ground Control Station. The aircraft will simultaneously carry multi-functional payloads such
as SIGINT, EO/IR/LD, and Wide Area Surveillance without degrading time on station. This system will provide dramatic improvements in operational flexibility and
mission performance.
